Best Powered Monitors

Hi, if you like analytical or clinical sound, this is the choice: the sound of today. But, if you would like more "flesh", more denser sound, I really urge you to look for active monitors done in the late seventies, early eighties. I am using such active monitors, and they have a completely different sound-print. They have the dynamism, speed and control, without any added artificial - but musically nice - warmth, but they have a different sound. Through such an old monitor you really hear not only the string of the violin but the resonances of the wood body of the violin.

IMHO the best powered monitors are ATC. Just remember studio monitors are designed to give the listener a clear window into the recording. There should be very little or no coloration. Many find studio monitors a little flat and unemotional sounding for stereo play-back.

The Genelec 8050A is one the best speaker monitor I heard for the money.
If you want to hear the music and you don´t need the speakers as a furniture to visual pleasure, the Pro audio monitors is your way.
Good luck.

Dont forget KRK systems......good luck,Bob

Meridian?
